In material informatics, the representation of the material structure is fundamentally essential to obtaining better prediction results, and graph representation has attracted much attention in recent years. Molecular crystals can be graphically represented in molecular and crystal representations, but a comparison of which representation is more effective has not been examined. In this study, we compared the prediction accuracy between molecular and crystal graphs for band gap prediction. The results showed that the prediction accuracies using crystal graphs were better than those obtained using molecular graphs. While this result is not surprising, error analysis quantitatively evaluated that the error of the crystal graph was 0.4 times that of the molecular graph with moderate correlation. The novelty of this study lies in the comparison of molecular crystal representations and in the quantitative evaluation of the contribution of crystal structures to the band gap.

A cost-effective and large-scale method for synthesizing ZnCoO nanoflowers with surface oxygen vacancies as electrode materials for supercapacitors is presented. The existence of oxygen vacancies on the surface of the ZnCoO nanoflowers has been confirmed through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The energy bands and density of states (DOS) of ZnCoO are examined using density functional theory, revealing that treatment with NaBH reduces the band gap of ZnCoO while increasing the DOS near the Fermi level compared to pristine ZnCoO.

[Cu(3-bph)(PABA)(HO)] () (3-bph = ,'-bis(3-pyridylmethylene)hydrazine and PABA = -amino benzoate) is a pyridyl-N bridging Cu coordination polymer, and PABA acts as a carboxylate-O donor forming a square pyramidal CuNO motif following a zigzag one-dimensional (1D) lattice. The shows weak antiferromagnetic coupling ( = -0.196(1) cm), and emission appears at 352 nm (λ = 293 nm), which is selectively quenched by Fe via the FRET mechanism.

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) with spin resolution, scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) and density functional theory (DFT) methods, we study the electronic structure of graphene-covered and bare Au/Co(0001) systems and reveal intriguing features, arising from the ferrimagnetic order in graphene and the underlying gold monolayer. In particular, a spin-polarized Dirac-cone-like state, intrinsically related to the induced magnetization of Au, was discovered at point. We have obtained a good agreement between experiment and theory for bare and graphene-covered Au/Co(0001) and have proven that both Au ferrimagnetism and the Dirac-cone-like band are intimately linked to the triangular loop dislocations present at the Au/Co interface.

Metal halide perovskites have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional photoelectric properties. The alkali metal doping strategy has been demonstrated to effectively modulate grain size, control crystallization kinetics, and adjust band gap characteristics in perovskite. This study employs the first-principles calculations to reveal that the selection of alkali metal species and their corresponding doping methodologies exert markedly distinct influences on both the electronic properties and ion migration kinetics of CsPbBr perovskites.

The effect of sonocatalysis on anticancer treatment is always restricted by rapid recombination of charge and low utilization of the ultrasonic cavitation effect. Herein, cobalt-doped prussian blue (PB) nanocubes were synthesized, and then they were etched by acidic solution to obtain amorphous Co-FePB@1h with abundant defects including: Fe/Co defects, Fe-(CN) vacancies, and dangling bonds. Both doping and defect engineering contribute to decreasing the band gap and promoting charge separation.
